People who explore reality not only by watching news on mainstream TV might have felt a historical shiver running down the spine when hearing about the efforts to unite Monsanto and Bayer AG. And right so! And the public should still be alarmed though the effort by Bayer to buy Monsanto was rejected at first hand (http://tinyurl.com/jobgzsf), since the talks might go on.

Who are the „flirting Giants“?

In fact Monsanto is well-known for its history of unscrupulous and murderous activities, such as producing the deadly Agent Orange, having caused gene defects with children of Vietnam veterans but still doing so with uncountable children in today´s Vietnam. It is rightfully feared for its genetically modified crops and other plants as well as Roundup, a glyphosate-based herbicide. And many people have reason to suspect the company to have the strategic aim of getting world food supply under US control, partly by biopiracy and extended misuse of patent right. What has slipped the minds of even most of those people being aware of the dangerous deeds of the company is the fact that personnel of Monsanto was even involved in the Manhattan project and the building of the first nuclear weapons (http://www.daytonhistorybooks.com/building_the_bomb_in_oakw.html).

By and large progressive people tend rightfully to see Monsanto as an ethically criminal organization being at the same time an important strategic asset of the US Power Elite.

Bayer in fact was an important part of the Nazi Empire´s economy. It was part of the notorious IG Farben and its support for the Nazi takeover of power and the usage of extended slave labor during the „Third Reich“. IG Farben had held large investments in Degesch producing Zyclon B used during the Holocaust. Without exaggeration to be called a “History of Horror”. 1951 IG Farben was split into its original constituent companies, still some of the world’s largest chemical and pharmaceutical companies, AGFA, BASF, Bayer and Sanofi. Bayer’s most important fields of business are human and veterinary pharmaceuticals, healthcare products, agricultural chemicals and biotechnology products as well as polymers. The splitting of IG Farben did not liquidate its history anyway, of which Bayer is part!

Allen Dulles

The „Missing Link“

As much as these facts are known to better informed contemporaries what is not so well-known is the close connection between part of US capitalists – the economic US Power Elite – of the thirties and the German Nazis. In fact the Wall Street was favoring Hitler´s grip to power, as among others Anthony Sutton has convincingly researched (http://tinyurl.com/28tsan8). And even less known, there was a fascist coup attempt by US capitalists against Roosevelt´s New Deal, the so called Business Plot, which failed, because the retired Marine CorpsMajor GeneralSmedley Butler, whom the plotters approached for leading the coup went public. He testified before the „McCormack–Dickstein Committee“ but the plotters were not tried maybe because of Roosevelt´s fear to stirr another attempt. Those forces actually cooperated with the Nazis almost throughout the whole Second World War (http://tinyurl.com/yh7rx4).

One of the outstanding „Managers“ of that connection were the Dulles Brothers, John Foster Dulles and his younger brother Allen Welsh Dulles, the elder one being later on foreign Minister under Eisenhower, the younger one later on head of the CIA. Both worked for Sullivan & Cromwell, who had strong ties with German holdings like IG Farben. Especially Allen Dulles was outstanding in his Nazi cooperation. Now it would be very naive to believe that those forces wanted the Nazis to rule the World, but the Nazi Empire helped to push the British imperial competitor out of the game and almost bombed the Soviet Union into Stone Age. Especially Allen Dulles wanted strong Nazi Forces even after WW II to be junior partners in controlling Germany, all very well described in Robert Talbot’s well researched book “The Devil´s Chessboard” (http://tinyurl.com/ho2nz87).

An Other Link to Dubious Forces

In her campaign for candidacy in 2007 Clinton held a meeting in the rooms of Monsanto´s law firm in Washington:

“While some might think the Clinton campaign was just trying to be cute, in Iowa, chemical agriculture is no laughing matter. According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Iowa has the highest rates of cancer of any state in the Midwest and it should come has no surprise that 97% of soybeans and 93% of corn grown in Iowa are genetically engineered to be sprayed with Monsanto’s Roundup, which the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) recently linked to causing cancer in humans just last year.”

If one wants to know what is in the Neocon „pipe“, one should read their think tank papers. In September 2000 the above mentioned US Think Tank „Project for the New American Century“ issued the paper „Rebuilding America´s Defenses“. On page 60 you find the announcement of Fascist atrocities! It reads:

„And advanced forms of biological warfare that can “target” specific genotypes may transform biological warfare from the realm of terror to a politically useful tool.“

Surely it should not target white Anglo Saxon Protestants (WASPs)! This is the direct continuation of the „Project Coast“, the dying Apartheid Regime of South Africa had working, dreaming of the „Black Bomb“, the biological Race War against Black South Africans. About the possible consequences see: „Ebola: Pandora´s Box Opened Since Long?“:

So it is not really surprising to hear the renowned Biochemist Charles Arntzen, being involved into the Ebola business, at a congress answering a young colleague who´s asking whether in face of overpopulation world food aid wouldn´t be counterproductive joking: „then go and build a better virus:

Thanks, Red Army, thanks for allowing me to grow up in Hamburg without Nazi-Regime! I´ll never forget that the people of the Soviet Union suffered the most terrible losses by the crimes that Nazi-Germany perpetrated! I´ll also not forget that millions of Soviet soldiers carried the bulk to end the Nazi barbary! Thanks also to the soldiers of all the armed forces in the Anti-Fascist coalition! But I´ll also not forget that parts of the US Power Elite did a lot to push the Nazis into power (http://azvsas.blogspot.de/2009/05/how-us-capitalism-supported-hitler.html).

This had two geo-strategic aims: on one side to kick the geo-strategic competitor Great Britain „out of the game“ (GB lateron became the „51st State“) and on the other side to get the Soviet Union bombed „into Stone Age“. The second aim wasn´t „fully reached“, but sinister forces are still „working“ on today Russia (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5SjPLJOjqc, hear George Friedman).

Let´s stand with all people who celebrate the 71st anniversary of Nazism´s defeat as well as the victory of the Red Army and the Anti-fascist Coalition, and let´s join in the demand:

Hardly any author has contributed to my desire to write more than James Baldwin, the Giant of Literature!

On my blog there´s a small contribution on that influence in German, which was waiting since long to be translated into English (as much as I like to write in both languages I´m always lazy to translate): http://tinyurl.com/jywwwsd

How did this influence of Baldwin come about with a relatively pale Hamburg boy like me?

Me 1968

1963 – me and my family had just moved to a part of Hamburg called Altona – I had fallen for the natural daughter of a Black WW II veteran living in a German family just round the corner. Unfortunately those days that was a very one sided affair (she loved me just like one would love a Mosqito), notwithstanding the fact that now since almost two decades I´m harmoniously living together with exactly that Lady. But those days my love for the teeny sharpened my already existing sensibility for racism in my own society as well as in the US and worldwide. On basis of that sensibility I got across Baldwin´s works. I think it was in 1966 that I had the pleasure to see Baldwin life presenting his „Amen Corner“ at Hamburg University. But the clou came with his book „The Fire Next Time“ (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fire_Next_Time). I remember myself well in summer 1967 sitting in a Café at the banks of River Elbe and writing a small essay for our school newsletter (unfortunately disappeared). I can rightfully say that his book instilled into me the eagerness of writing. And it had considerably contributed to my eagerness studying intensively everything about Racism, Colonialism, Imperialism and about the Powers that (shouldn´t) be in the US and elsewhere.
